According to one exemplary embodiment, a method for finding an answer to a query from a table is provided. The method may include receiving the query and the table. The method may also include generating a hierarchical representation based on the received table, whereby the hierarchical representation comprises a primary tree and a secondary tree. The method may then include mapping the primary tree to the secondary tree. The method may further include generating a plurality of predicate triples in a semantic relationship form based on the primary tree and the secondary tree. The method may also include determining if a predicate triple within the plurality of predicate triples matches the query using query-side and table-side context and semantics. The method may then include adding the predicate triple within the plurality of predicate triples to a plurality of candidate answers based on determining that the predicate triple matches the query.

Answering natural language table queries through semantic table representation

An approach for dynamically providing a prioritized list of relevant cases includes a computer generating a set of tags for a case and retrieving a set of tags for completed cases. The approach includes the computer sorting the set of tags for the case and the set of tags for the completed cases into a set of tag types. The approach includes the computer determining a set of matching tags for each of the set of tag types between the case and completed cases. Furthermore, the approach includes the computer determining an ordered list of the completed cases. The ordered list is based, at least in part, on a number of matching tags in the set of matching tags corresponding to the completed case in the completed cases, and a number of matching tags in the set of matching tags in a tag type in the set of tag types.
